When any difficulty arises it is always a good idea to check that the oven has been connected to the type of
voltage for which it was manufactured. The serial plate is located on the inside of the lower front panel. It
will list the type of voltage for which the unit was manufactured. In addition, a wiring diagram is attached to
the side of the slide-out control panel, as well as reproduced in this manual (see page 30).
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The left column of the following table lists symptoms that indicate a problem, while the center and right
columns list the possible causes and appropriate corrective action. Note that the recommendations of this
table assume that the wiring connections are good. When checking a component, always check the wiring
attached to the component as well.

Oven will not hold
correct temperature. Temperature probe not working. Resistance across temperature probe leads at room temperature (70°F)
